Welcome to Kickstart Your Business 2026
If you are not familiar with CIBN Connect you may not realize that this is a members organization where our Speakers Level of member signs up to speak for our many events each year. There are at least 6 major events and dozens of smaller events that our speakers can speak at. Membership gives you speakers training, speakers tools to fill events of your own, magazine coverage (if you buy the annual) and a booking tool that is used on LinkedIn as well. Many summits ask speakers for a fee. There is no fee for one summit, but you do access many speaking events with membership.
We don't require that you have an email list of 5,000, but our membership at the Speakers Level will show you how to gain a following of more than 10,000 people with simple repeat steps on the social channels of your choice. We recently used these steps on MeetUp as a new platform and went from zero to 80,000 in the last 5 months. This is the kind of thing we teach our speakers to do.
The Speakers Membership is $77/month but there are 3 major benefits of signing up $777 for the year:
- $147 in savings or basically 2 months for free
- A full page in the Connector Magazine valued at $1500 and then another full page in the Bold, Beautiful & In Business Magazine valued at another $1500.
- We will market an event of yours (webinar, seminar, coffee chat) to our 44,000 people on MeetUp twice a year. It generally puts 20 to 40 butts in seats each time, so as long as you can sell this is a HUGE BANG FOR YOUR BUCK!
Furthermore we will guarantee annual subscribers that you make 3 times what you spent, and if you do not, then we will give you another year for free!
If you are not a Member yet and you have questions, book time with our CEO Kerry George.

Kick Start Your Business In 2026 will bring together entrepreneurs, business owners and professionals for 3 days of networking, learning and leadership in our vibrant CIBN Connect community. This event is going to run in a new way that is uncommon for summits.
We will pre-record the half hour speaking sections and they will go live on YouTube one after the other over three days. We will then drive people to watch the CIBN TV YouTube channel recordings in a playlist by running ads and using organic marketing over the three days.
Each day there will be a 90 minute "Networking Session" where we will bring the participants into our MEETN room and make on the spot connections. The speakers will benefit from being part of those sessions because we will highlight them and their gifts with the links. We will record these sessions and put them up in the playlist for further interaction as we continue to advertise this over the coming month.
The VIP Offer will not be these recordings because they are up for the public. Instead we will assist each of the speakers to create a one hour training session that will be good for them to get business from. These recordings will go into the VIP offer. This will give a unique opportunity for us to market the VIP but it also helps our speakers have a proper short course that they have created to use on their future VIP offers with us and with others. These short courses can also be sold by our Speakers to add another revenue source to their business. We work with our Speakers every Monday morning for one hour to help them achieve these objectives.
Speakers also get training at CIBN Connect to help them fill rooms, market events, pick the best podcasts, create webinars that convert and a whole lot more.
Each of our Speakers will share the event with their own email lists and their own communities, and we will also share the event with our 80,000 people on MeetUp to insure an excellent turnout for everyone. We expect over 500 registrations for this event!
All Speakers for this event need to be Speaker Level Members of CIBN Connect NO EXCEPTIONS

Our Speakers can speak to our small groups at many meetings throughout the year, we also have them speak at 4 to 8 summits a year, and let them go live in our large FB groups. They can even promote 2 of their own webinars or seminars to our following of more than 80,000 on MeetUp each year. We have a guaranteed ROI for speakers.
